Low Carb Crockpot Southwestern Pork Stew Recipe

Nothing is ever easy, is it? As I write this, the packers from the moving company are over an hour late and my husband is on the phone trying to track them down. We have done all the prep work and are entirely prepared for the chaos of packers and movers and now…we wait. We shouldn’t have to wait, but we wait. I don’t like waiting. In fact, I hate waiting and I stink at it. I get very antsy and irritable and I can’t sit still. And lord help the person who crosses me when I am in that mood. But I also have to laugh a little. I mean, isn’t it par for the course for some big glitch to happen when you are moving? That’s why they say that moving is one of the most stressful events in life. And if I can laugh a little, then I can relax a little too. It’s annoying and it certainly complicates things, but my energy is better spent focusing on things that are within my control. Like writing this post while we wait.

Low Carb Slow Cooker Southwestern Pork Stew

I said nothing is ever easy, but I lied. Moving is not easy, certainly. But this recipe is really quite easy, even as slow cooker recipes go. Unlike many crockpot soups and stews, you don’t have to brown the meat at all before adding it in. It all gets shredded up at the end and browning it interferes with the ability to shred it properly. So this really is one of those slow cooker recipes where you add everything to the pot all at once, set your timer and walk away. Eight hours later, dinner is done.

Easy low carb comfort food, just when you need it most.

    My experience with movers is that the only time they show up on time is when you are not ready for them. Then they are apt to show up early. I think it’s a law of the universe that physicists have yet to discover. Good luck!

    Maybe this lateness right off the bat will ensure that everything else about the move will run like clock work!

    I think you are wonderful to keep blogging even when your family is in the middle of such a big move. I wish there was a way to help you — as much as you have helped me. Your recipes are what I make everyday to keep me going on low carb.

    Please tell us if there is anything you need.

    Yep! Movers are late, that is just par for the course. : )
    We moved so much when I was a child my mother had it down to an art. One room a day throw out everything you didn’t absolutely need and it would all fit in one truck. The one time she was ill and we didn’t get all the rooms done it took 2 trucks! She could laugh about it later but I’m sure it was not easy. My father was a type A personality and he never turned down a job, so the longest we ever lived anywhere was 4 years, and the shortest was 6 weeks. I never even saw that house cause I was spending the summer with my Grandmother! I guess what I’m trying to say is try not to sweat it, it all works out!

    This recipe looks wonderful! Thank you for sharing in the midst of everything going on in your life. I thought I heard you were moving to my neck of the woods. Would I sound like a crazy stalker if I offered to bring you a housewarming/welcome to the area gift? ๐Ÿ˜‰ In any case, I hope things go more smoothly for you all and that you get settled without a hitch. You deserve a break!
